As the excitement from Comic-Con winds down, Netflix keeps the buzz alive with the announcement of its annual event, Netflix Geeked Week 2024. Set to take place from 16 September to 19 September, this year’s Geeked Week promises a series of genre film and TV show revelations and will conclude with a live, in-person fan gathering in Atlanta, Georgia, marking the event’s first live fan experience.
Netflix’s Geeked Week, now in its fourth year, has quickly become a highlight for fans of the streaming giant’s offerings in series, film, and games. The event is designed to celebrate and preview upcoming content, with past editions providing first looks at new seasons and exclusive project announcements. This year, the festivities will culminate in a live gathering where fans from various fandoms can converge, with tickets going on sale come 3 September.
The anticipation was set in motion with a teaser that Netflix dropped, showcasing snippets from highly awaited titles such as Stranger Things, Squid Game, Arcane, Wednesday, The Sandman, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Cobra Kai, and One Piece. Each of these series has new seasons that fans are eagerly waiting to dive into. The teaser also hinted at upcoming animated series like Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft, stirring excitement for what’s to come.
Notably, Stranger Things is still filming its final season, suggesting that updates are likely during Geeked Week. Production for One Piece Season 2 began recently, and Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 is in development, promising more adventures in these beloved universes. Additionally, new seasons of Arcane, Cobra Kai, and Squid Game are set to premiere later this year.
Geeked Week has historically been a platform for significant revelations, with last year’s event showcasing updates on projects like Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon and Netflix’s Yu Yu Hakusho adaptation. With the inaugural live event, this year’s Geeked Week is not only about virtual showcases but also about bringing fans together to celebrate their favourite shows and characters.
Fans can look forward to a blend of updates on existing shows and sneak peeks of new projects at the Netflix Geeked Week 2024. With surprises always on the agenda, attendees and viewers can expect anything from celebrity appearances to exclusive screenings during what is quickly becoming one of Netflix’s most exciting events of the year.
